Super Sci-Fi Rocket Fueled Jet Pack--Upcycled Craft DIY

Super Sci-Fi Rocket Fueled Jet Pack--Upcycled Craft DIY

I love upcycled crafts. There is nearly nothing better than taking something destined for the landfill and turning into pure joy. This Rocket Jet Pack is the perfect upcycled craft. It's easy and quick to make! You can add all the embellishments in the world, or just let it be the fuel for your child's imagination.

This
craft promises to make you a better parent in less than 20
minutes. There are days I am just rushing around, taking care of
everything that I barely notice the people I love the most. I know we've
all been there. This craft is the solution. It doesn't take
long and anyone can do it. And the instant joy in your persons eyes is
worth every minute!

With
my son's imagination...I knew he needed some Jet Packs. He loves to
run. He loves the thought of flight. And I like making things
with little expense...especially if I know they are going to get flown around
at top speed. You guys...this is my baby, but these can be custom
made to fit anyone of any size.

Wow thank yiu for sharing. We are going to have to make those for our preschool space theme. Can't wait for the new school year. You are awesome. A bonus is I am a recycler nut and hate throw anything away, Drives my hubby crazy, lol. God Bless. Mrs. Valerie

This is such a great idea! I think my husband would probably like one of these :) Thanks so much for joining the Throwback Thursday party and I hope you'll join me again this week! I'm opening the party to new ideas too :)

Thanks so much for sharing this idea (found on Pinterest); my husband made these for our 2 boys for their astronaut costumes and they loved them! We used black elastic belt webbing and black duct tape to cover the cardboard and attach the bottles. Thanks again!

I love this and I coulnd'nt wait to do it. I am half way done and so far they look great. I am making three, I have four boys, but one is 15 and a little old for it. I added pull cords for the starter. I used the badge clips with the retractible cord. $3 something for 6 at walmart. Thanks for the great idea.

absolutely girls can be astronauts. I sure wish someone would have made me one when I was a kid.. only I dont think two liter plastic bottles had been invented yet. Girls can rock these just as well as boys..they have imaginations, too, yanno.

Just got the stuff to make this with my 5yo grandson. But he has informed me that there needs to be handle parts like Perry the Platypus has on his jetpack. But I am completely stumped as to what would hold up. Any ideas? If you are not sure who Perry is, here is his picture. http://www.elginpk.com/worsley1011_3/reny/yum.jpg

What fun! My little superhero insisted on making a smaller version for his stuffed bear so they could be "super" together!The only thing I'm doing differently is instead of using staples on the arm straps, I'm hot gluing them. Don't wanna take any chances with getting poked. :)Thanks for posting!

Hey, I posted your idea an my blogspot blog. Actually I posted just one picture and told my readers to visit your blog for the tutorial. Hope thats Okay for you. If not let me know and i will delete the post.
